A musically talented teen with her sights set on the spotlight must find a way to get her life back when she falls in with the mob. ***** In a city where con artists make the rules and aspiring females wear sequins and dance with a pole, Melody Holiday refuses to ride on the coattails of her semi-famous grandfather.

Ace Allister is a cunning and ruthless monster. Gianna Phoenix is a fiery and independent woman who will stop at nothing to destroy him for the murder of her brother. When they are forced into an arranged marriage for the good of their notoriously criminal families, their mutual animosity will spark into a fire that ignites their passion-or destroy them both. Gianna has one goal: get Ace to fall in love with her, and then kill him. Ace has another: get Gianna to fall in love with him, so she can't. And as they fall headfirst into a world of dark personal vendettas and murderous motives, the line between love and loathing begins to blur, until it becomes clear that saying "Till death do us part" wasn't just a promise-it was a threat. They say the course of true love never did run smooth; but in their case, it might just turn deadly.
